Now, this is a bit of a speech, but there are questions for my fellow brown-coats in here.
So, as the title says...At the beginning of July, I took a bus out to this summer theatre job in Massachusetts. Packing was the worst...I'm too much of a packrat to leave anything behind. However, when it came to room and where to fit my DVD's...I came to a serious problem. Should I bring the Series and BDM? I debated it to myself for some time. On one hand, what's a fan without Firefly in close proximity? But, on the other hand, my laptop won't play anything but music CD's, and the place I'd be staying doesn't have a running TV and DVD player, and I'm not about to bring mine on a Greyhound. In the end...I decided to leave them, planning a Shindig with the projector screens on campus when I return to Uni. It was a painful departure and in order to control my craving, I subscribed to The Signal and Firefly Talk podcasts, downloaded the extended bloopers from Youtube, and put the ballad of Jayne in my regular work-day playlist. I've gotten a few looks and made a few friends from belting it out whenever it comes up, but that's neither here nor there. Point is, I'm missin' the 'Verse. 
So, what do you guys do when you aren't able to watch the show when you want, be it from a lack of a DVD player or anything? Any places to frequent? I'd post a bunch here, but discussing the show kinda makes me wanna watch them more, and my fan-art needs more work before I start posting it...
Dear Diary... Today, we were kidnapped by hill folk never to be seen again. It was the best day ever.

It's obvious you can get here, FFF.net, so drop in, grap a bottle of Mudders Milk, and conversify with the rest of us. That and get the Firefly theme as a ringtone for you phone. So whenever you feel withdrawl, play the theme and at least you can walk aagin. And if you can't walk, Crawl. And if you can't do that, get someone ta carry ya. Maybe Kaylee.

Mal: Well, if that happens, let me know.

I've haven't seen the TV show in 3 weeks, but I saw the movie last Friday night. It was on Cinemax, I watched it on the HD Cinemax channel. It was in letterbox format, though, so some of the shots didn't look right.
Anyway, to get me by till I decide to watch the series again, I play the TV series and movie soundtracks on my computer and it makes me remember the scenes the music came from. I also come on here throughout the day, readin and postin. Those two things help me get my Firefly fix.

Hmmm ... since buying the DVDs, the longest time I've gone is about a month.
They're great to play while doing stuff you really don't want to do -- kind of sugar-with-the-medecine.

Longest I ever went without is when I bought the Chosen Collection- Buffy every day for like two months straight.
Nice to see Serenity at the end of all that.
What was that Chrisisall

*drops a bombshell*
I've seen the series... once. I recently rewatched the first three episodes, planning on seeing the rest too but cancelled that on hearing a remastered HD version was about to be unleashed on the public.
If I watch something twice in reasonably quick succession, I memorise it all and find it hard to watch again. This way, I can come to the show fresh every couple of years.

It was filmed in widescreen. I get everything in widescreen, if I can.
